A teacher is teaching a class and she sees that Johnny isn’t paying attention, so she asks him, “If there are three ducks sitting on a fence, and you shoot one, how many are left?” Johnny says, “None.” The teacher asks, “Why?” Johnny says, “Because the shot scared them all off.” The teacher says, “No, two, but I like how you’re thinking.” Johnny asks the teacher, “If you see three women walking out of an ice cream parlor, one is licking her ice cream, one is sucking her ice cream, and one is biting her ice cream, which one is married?” The teacher says, “The one sucking her ice cream.” Johnny says, “No, the one with the wedding ring, but I like how you’re thinking!” – ‘LaughFactory’

20th Century Multicultural Literature

The 20th century was tough on both society as well as the reporters. Topic by topic, global views became vague because of the Western worldviews if survival and statue. Latin heroes began to write, Chinese manifestations took place, also the turmoil of the Jews, Africans, and Nazis (trap within their in skins) were explained to explore ways to move forward in communicating. Books were main tools and authors write these books (still today).

Over and over again, the leadership of subjectivity battles the norms of economics through good and effective writing.

FYI (just a few contributors)

Latin heroes: Latinos share no small views. Every perspective launches into a big vision of solitude. Writers took their ink and spelled out their meanings. To no avail, cultures across the globe grabbed at the chance to analyze these particular writings.

Jewish Holocaust writers: Right or wrong, the news if the Jews and Western German continue to top the charts in plain horrific times. This were the days of World War II. Sadly, millions attempt to forget those times, however, those creative writing pieces are priceless in knowledgeable clues to hatred and addiction. Moreover, families died by the masses, relationships exhorted to the point that they were sought out to be confiscated and confined – guaranteeing suffrage.

European literature champion, Kafka: Ideally, this type of literature provides the acts of suffrage. In relation, families have roles and caste systems. These types of influences enable minds to want to drift to explain answers. For the most part, among Kafka, authors this European outlet to set traps in the mindset (e.g., aggressive norms, needs, visions, perspectives of neglect, and simply having a sense of humor).
